The fate of the #Babylon5 pilot may be decided end of this month. Though much of @TheCW was bought by @NXSTMediaGroup the decision also rests heavily with @WarnerbrosTV. If fans want to show their support for B5 & let them know you want this to happen, now is the time #B5onCWin23

It���s great that Canada’s own @cathmckenna is leading the UN’s anti-greenwashing task force. First order of business: Canadian banks @rbc @scotiabank @TD_Canada @BMO @cibc not living up to their net zero commitments #FossilBanks https://t.co/hpqAYGDz1u @greenpeaceCA

The Canada-Indonesia free trade deal will encourage corporations to plunder Indigenous land and exploit people in the name of profits. It will only benefit corporations, not communities. @mary_ng @s_guilbeault, halt negotiations now! @GreenpeaceCA https://t.co/H3dGnjoS64

Hey @s_guilbeault, we need a strong single-use plastic (SUP) ban to #BeatPlasticPollution:
1⃣ Expand the ban list 🥤
2⃣ Stop the export of SUP🚢
3⃣ Enforce the ban this year 🕐
4⃣ Don't let flimsy SUPs be replaced by more durable throwaway plastic 🍴🛍️

.@JoyceMurray: Canada said it supports 30% ocean protection by 2030. In a month, will you push for a strong Global Ocean Treaty at the UN to #ProtectTheOceans? @greenpeaceCA #BiodiversityCrisis https://t.co/JXRJs8Av4q

.@DougBlackAB .@SenateCA must #PassBillC12 before the rise for the summer. It could help ensure a livable planet for us all. #cdnpoli https://t.co/c0N0wwsMbQ

[Leadnow @leadnowca]

Canada has missed every climate target it has ever set, and now, our first-ever climate accountability law is hanging by a thread.

We're counting on @SenateCA to sit until #BillC12 passes. Our kids' health and future are at stake.

@fordnation I'm urging you to immediately revoke the MZO that is allowing developers to pave over the Lower Duffins Creek wetlands. This is environmentally short-sighted and with Amazon no longer wanting the warehouse, it makes zero sense https://t.co/yvv9kAWfLt

4 down, 2 to go! @BNPParibas, @CreditSuisse, @ING_news & @rabobank have stopped financing Amazon crude oil trade from Ecuador to the U.S. As #DavosAgenda partners, @natixis & @ubs must stop financing crude oil. #KeepItInTheGround #WEF21 @standearth

[Patrick B Hall @PatrickBHall]

Hey @SocieteGenerale, as a #DavosAgenda partner, can you stop bankrolling the destruction of the #Amazon by committing to no longer finance the trade of crude oil from Ecuador to the U.S.? #StopAmazonExtraction #WEF21 @standearth

[Patrick B Hall @PatrickBHall]

.@wef partners @natixis & @ubs are still providing trade financing for #Amazon crude oil.
How does this align with the #DavosAgenda and the great reset? #StopAmazonExtraction #WEF21 #KeepItInTheGround #BankingOnAmazonDestruction @standearth

[Patrick B Hall @PatrickBHall]

What’s the hold up @UBS? By financing the trade of Amazon oil, you're endangering the lives of millions of #Indigenous people in Ecuador. Oil spills are poisoning their water & food – commit to stop trade financing crude oil. #BankingOnAmazonDestruction #WEF21 @standearth

[Patrick B Hall @PatrickBHall]

We’ve got an idea of how #DavosAgenda partner @natixis can do a “great reset”.
Step 1: Stop financing trade of Amazon oil from Ecuador to the U.S.
Step 2: Make a public & permanent commitment to stop all Amazon oil related financing.

Condemning hate crimes is not enough. @BernJordanMP, @MarcMillerVM you must take urgent action to protect the Mi'kmaq. Define what constitutes a 'moderate livelihood'. #ProtectMikmaqRights
